How to read lupus tests

Hello!
I'm Niki. New to the board! I'm writing because I've been somewhat ill for awhile without a diagnosis. I requested my results from the labs. Does anyone here know how to read blood tests?
The reference range was
>140 negative
140-160 low
180< high

Now mine was >140
Why didn't the laboratory write in the acutal number, or is it close to 140? How are these tests read
anyway,
see ya
